A Glennville man was killed early Saturday morning when his pickup truck hit two utility poles in front of the Abercorn Street Courtyard by Marriott hotel.

The wreck happened about 4 a.m. in front of the hotel, located at 6703 Abercorn St. Brian Neal Rollf, 37, was declared dead at the scene, according to police spokesman Julian Miller.

Miller said that as of Saturday evening, investigators still were trying to figure out why Rollf’s 1995 Ford F-150 left the southbound lane of Abercorn Street, hitting two telephone and cable boxes and a metal utility pole before slamming into a wooden utility pole that crushed the driver’s side door.

The wreck left the metal pole on the wrong side of the hotel’s entrance and power lines sparked several small fires in the brush around the wreck, Miller said. Savannah Fire and police officers put them out. The southbound lanes of Abercorn were closed between Jackson Boulevard and Stephenson Avenue for several hours.
